Cathy,
After reading your blog and “Portraits in the snow” I have a horrible gut feeling about John Mckinney. He was my suspect before I read the book. I did read he was from Texas and he became a chaplain to forgive his past. That would certainly be something to research.
His son’s attraction to North fox island is also very strange.

He spent a lot of time right across the street from the King home. Timmy would have recognized him – maybe enough to go with him. His murder was loud ugly and in the faces of everyone. I believe he was heavily involved in all that went on in that dark world.

“Two guns were found in Flynn’s car; Flynn’s gun and a 44-caliber gun registered to Berkley Officer Krussel. The gun belonging to Krussel was found on the floor of the car between the passenger seat and door. “.

Cathy,
Was there ever any information regarding how Officer Flynn had Officer Krussel’s gun in his possession??? Did he steal it? Is Officer Krussel still alive?
